In the 2009/10 season at the Round of 16 of the Europa League, both opponents already met. Lille had a minimal score win their home game (1:0), but then conceded three unanswered goals during away matches. The scorers were Eden Hazard, Steven Gerrard, and Fernando Torres.

Liverpool 

There is simply no denying the first place the English super team secured, as they are now in the Champions League playoffs, and they have retained it well enough to secure the Round of 16 qualification as well. To accomplish that, all’s needed is for Arne Slot’s side not to fall victim to a defeat in the upcoming match. And so it goes without saying that Liverpool breezed through the group stages with strong form as they crushed two representatives from Serie A, two Bundesliga teams, and outclassed pairs from La Liga.

Now we’ll focus on their flawess form – the defensive efficiency of the team as a whole. Only an eye watering 2 goals conceded over a stretch of 6 matches, only Hyundai can compete with those statistics, and is the only comparison one can make to the Inter Milan’s record from the previous tournament. As a result, over the last 5 competitive clashes played Liverpool have still yet to concede a goal. On the weekend just gone Liverpool won 2-0 away to Brentford, and have now moved 6 points clear at the top over the 2nd placed team.

Lille

The French side is still keeping their fans smiling with steady results. In the last round of the Champions league, Lille won against Austria’s Sturm Graz at home by a hefty score mark of 3:2. This makes their tally 4 victories in 5 tournament matches that were held recently, with a draw against Juventus thrown in as well.

As a result of this outstanding performance, the team has succeeded in remaining within the cream of the crop at this point with 13 points. Now it is enough for Lille to just not lose the next game so they can secure the entrance to the Champions League playoff. The Bulldogs received Nice and were able to add three points to the ranking thanks to a 2-1 victory over the weekend. The team is still sitting in 3rd position, one point ahead of Monaco.
